Patent EP-0712229-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SCHILLACI ONOFRIO
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1995-11-14
Abstract: A user interface for a craftsperson's portable signal processing and communication
unit incorporates an intermediate translating mechanism, termed "middleware", that is
effectively invisible to an operational support system ((OSS), such as an AT&T CAS, and is
operative to generate a text/graphics interface having one or more functionall "buttons".
The buttons are displayed on the portable unit's contact-sensitive display screen and are
invoked by the craftsperson placing a contact pen against the button. When a button is
invoked, the middleware interface generates the appropriate alpha-numeric or other code
used by the operational support system to represent the invoked function. Such an
implementation of the user interface frees the craftsperson from having to be familiar with
OSS codes, or look up in a separate database the required alpha-numeric code formats,
employed by such support systems.

Abstract: An alternating bias current is made to flow
through a coil wound around an MI device incorporated in an
oscillation circuit, and an alternating-current bias
magnetic field is applied to the MI device. An amplitude-modulated
waveform corresponding to peaks which alternate
between two different heights is provided at the output of
the oscillation circuit in accordance with an impedance
variation in the MI device according to an external magnetic
field and the alternating-current bias magnetic field. The
difference in height between the peaks corresponds to the
strength of the external magnetic field. The output of the
oscillation circuit is envelope-detected by an envelope
detecting circuit, and an alternating-current component from
which a direct-current component is eliminated is inputted
to a comparator. The comparator provides an output signal
having a digital waveform pulse-width modulated according to
the difference in height between the peaks. The strength of
the external magnetic field is obtained not from the
absolute value of an amplitude of the output of the
oscillation circuit but from a variation component in the
amplitude.

deposition of the diamond film. The smooth surface characteristic of

low wear resistance property, by depositing a different orientation 
(111) diamond and then depositing an exceedingly thin top layer of 
(100) orientation diamond. Said second layer will preferably have the 
minimum thickness required to overgrow the rough underlayer, and 
to provide a smooth free-surface of the diamond film.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to wireless networks, and particularly a method and
apparatus for assigning carrier frequencies to base station antenna sites. 
     Base stations are represented as a matrix of interconnected nodes and
links, the nodes representing carrier frequency sites and the links being
dimensioned in accordance with disallowed frequency slots. A first algorithm is
used to assign carrier frequencies to the carrier frequency sites in a non-interfering
manner resulting in a partial frequency assignment plan (3309). A
second algorithm assigns carrier frequencies to the remaining vacant carrier sites
in a manner which seeks to minimise the amount of interference. The order in
which the carrier sites are assigned carrier frequencies is determined by either a
random ordering, an order generated by simulated annealing, or an ordering
generated by a genetic algorithm. A quality measure is generated from the
resultant frequency plan (3411) and is used to modify the order in which the
frequencies are assigned to carrier site nodes in subsequent iterations.

Abstract: A device for detecting knocking in an internal
combustion engine which, when spike noise or noise due to
disturbance in the flame in low-load running are
generated, does not erroneously detect it as knocking.
Knocking frequency components passing through a band-pass
filter 32 and frequency components lower than the
knocking frequency and passing through a low-load noise
band-pass filter 321 are picked from the ionic current
detected by an ionic current detecting unit 17. When the
level of the low-frequency components is larger than a
predetermined value, it is regarded that the noise is
generated due to unstable combustion during the low-load
operation or the spike noise is generated due to corona
discharge of a spark plug 16, and the determination of
the occurrence of knocking is prevented. This
constitution makes it possible to prevent erroneous
detection of knocking.
